Bone mass was measured by single photon absoptiometry in 52 women with hip fractures and compared to controls of similar age. No difference in the forearm bone mineral content (BMC) was detectable between the groups. Extracapsular fractures had lower forearm BMC than intracapsular fractures, but these differences were eliminated by allowance for age. Clinical management therefore was not influenced by such measurements.
采用单光子吸收法对52例髋部骨折女性进行骨量测量,并与年龄相仿的对照组进行比较。两组之间前臂骨矿物质含量(BMC)未检测到差异。囊外骨折的前臂BMC低于囊内骨折,但通过考虑年龄因素,这些差异被消除。因此,临床治疗并未受此类测量结果的影响。
